Believe

I am an atheist. In the popular nomenclature I am referred to as a non-believer.

I really don't like that name, non-believer. I believe in things, lots of things. 

I have also been pitied and prayed for because of my "empty life". As I look around the room at my little family this Saturday morning, my life could not feel any fuller.

I believe in love.

I believe in the family unit.

I believe that vaccines work.

I believe in real food.

I believe you were born that way.

I believe in myself, except on the days I don't.

I believe in making the world a better place.

I believe in re-using and recycling.

I believe in cleaning your plate.

I don't believe in karma.

I don't believe everything happens for a reason.

I don't believe everything people say, anymore.

I don't believe the hype.

I don't believe in big pharma.

I don't believe in soul mates.

I don't believe in god.

I don't believe in the power of prayer.

I don't believe the conspiracy theories, except the ones that I do.

I don't believe that drafts make you sick.

I don't believe that might makes right.

The list goes on. What do you believe in?
